Book Description
From the outside, it appears Billy Newman has it all. A successful businessman with a beautiful family, Billy has not only achieved his dreams of financial success, he also has realized his dream of playing golf around the world. As a sports writer for a national magazine, he has seen and experienced nearly all the world's greatest golf courses, from Pinehurst to Pebble Beach to St. Andrews and beyond. There's just one problem, but it's a big one. As successful as Billy seems, the truth is that deep down he feels like a failure. Instead of being exhilarated by his years of outward success, he has become exhausted. Frustrated, confused and lost at heart, Billy finally sets foot on the one elite golf course he has not yet visited - the gorgeous, lonely Prairie Dunes in the middle of Kansas. Tom Watson once said about the course, "It's a little bit of Scotland in the land of Oz...Like Scotland, the wind usually blows." On this impressive golf course, struggling against the land't natural challenges and his own billowing questions about life, Billy may just find, among this great inland links on this cold windy autumn day, the answers that have been eluding him. With God walking with Billy hole by hole, this day perhaps he will finally reconcile his past and find a life worth really living.

Book Description
'Hello, I've discovered a hole in my apartment... it moves around ... yes ... if you could come and look at it ...bring it down to you, you say ... how ... hello!'.The protagonist has discovered a hole and tries to find an explanation. He seeks expert advice. But not everything can be explained. Perhaps he will just have to accept that it's there.THE HOLE has simple, expressive drawings by pen and computer. The hole is punched right through the book, so it exists in real life.Praise:'... a stylish and surreal picture book... line drawings combined with a minimal use of colour lends the book a stylish and elegant appearance. With few details, attention is drawn towards the simple points on each page, making the story quick to read and easy to understand for readers young and old. At the same time it raises a whole host of questions, both concrete and abstract, and invites several perusals. It is fortunate that the pages are sturdy - this is a book that will quickly become well-thumbed.' - Dagbladet About the AuthorØyvind Torseter is an artist. He has created many picture books and given individual as well as collective exhibitions. Øyvind Torseter won the Bologna Ragazzi Award 2008 with his picture book AVSTIKKERE (DETOURS), and has received several other prizes and nominations as well for his illustrations. But we suspect that THE HOLE will be his great international break-through. No online pdf can do justice to this fabulous story, as the physical hole going straight through the book cannot be visible on a screen. Still, you will get an idea of the philosophical implications raised in this book when looking at the illustrations.
